Hestia Invest Review — Is Hestia Invest a Scam?

Yes. Hestia Invest is an FCA-warned “broker” whose KYC policy demands a photo of your card complete with the CVV — turning an unlicensed platform into an active card-theft operation The notices are written once, in the block below. If you paid hestiainvest.com, the date and how you paid are the part this review cannot see.

The record

What the notices say

  • The FCA warns that Hestia Invest is not authorised and “may be targeting people in the UK”, specifically identifying hestiainvest.com (cited by TradersUnion, 5 Aug 2026, and multiple review channels).
  • The Ontario Securities Commission investor alert of September 2026 lists Hestia Invest (aka HestiaInvest) among unregistered platforms actively targeting Canadians — alongside Digital Crypto Commission, LuniCapital, ZentraPro and Alpen Trade (OSC warning list, checked October 2026).
  • FinanceGuardReview (7 Sep 2026) documents the KYC policy demanding a card image with the CVV — a hallmark of card-detail theft, not of any compliance process.
  • Investexposure (18 Aug 2026) lists it among multi-asset broker warnings, with withdrawal issues per review channels.
  • If you uploaded card images here, treat it as a card-compromise event: cancel the card, dispute every charge, and watch for follow-on fraud — the card details are the product.
  • The support addresses for hestiainvest.com are support@hestiainvest.com, support@hestiainvest.org.
Loss or this pattern

A trading loss and this pattern are not the same

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can you close my Hestia Invest account, or have the person who phoned me call again?

Forensics Source Group is not affiliated to this broker. We do not hold an account at hestiainvest.com. We cannot confirm a balance, close an account, or phone you as Hestia Invest.

Hestia Invest says I must pay a tax or fee before withdrawing — should I?

No. A real broker deducts a fee from the balance. A new payment to release your own money is a second charge. Keep the message that asked for it.

What do you do with what I send?

We place it next to the record above. Where the same payment shows up from other people, those files can sit together as a class action. The first look is free.
